  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Per the Daily Mail, Leeds are considering a move to sack Farke despite the club winning promotion to the Premier League. They claim that the club have reservations about the manager's record in the Premier League. He has twice led Norwich to promotion, and has now done so again with Leeds, but in his first full season in the Premier League, Norwich finished bottom. His second season in the top-flight saw him sacked in November, with his Canaries taking five points from 11 games.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Leeds are not likely to make a change unless they can line up a replacement they believe guarantees success. They are also acutely aware that any move to sack a manager who has just won promotion could prove hugely controversial, especially if the club fail to get off to a strong start in the top-flight.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Leeds won promotion over the Easter bank holiday weekend, as they beat Stoke City 6-0. They have two games remaining, against Bristol City and Plymouth Argyle, as the club aim to be crowned champions.
